[quote=Anonymous]I had to be convinced to have kids. I agreed logically, but didn't have that feeling. Then, after I had two, and the younger was maybe 1 or 2 years old, that feeling hit--briefly, for maybe a couple days? I can't remember. It started with a dream, and then I woke up, and I JUST WANTED A BABY. This was amusing to me, as I'd never had it before. It didn't make me seriously have a third child, I was done with two for various health/logistical reasons, and the feeling went away and hasn't come back (my younger is now 6). I have no idea what that was all about. For me, the older my kids get, the more used to them I am, the more I fall in love with them, and the more they make my life meaningful, but I didn't set out with the idea that my life lacked meaning until they came along. I feel like I would have been fine without kids, if my DH was against it (instead, he was much more pro-kids than I was, and I knew he'd make a good dad--which he is).[/quote]
